Welcome to PooBahSpiel, the online voice and home of the creative mind of Mark Monlux, Illustrator Extraordinaire. Prepare yourself for an endless regaling of art directly from the hand of this stellar artist. And brace yourself against his mighty wind of pontification. Updates are kinda weekly and show daily sketches, current projects, and other really nifty stuff.
To spare you some time googling for Benjamin Bowman Curtis I will inform you that he was a spokesperson for Dell. He was the "Dell Dude" who's catchphrase was "Dude, get a Dell." He was let go as spokesperson when he was caught with some Mary Jane.
I thought I drew up this review earlier this year. But, I looked through my sketchbooks and saw that I didn't. It's a bit on the odd side. I got thinking about it when I got to thinking that folks don't appreciate Christian Slater as a truly fine actor.
What I loved about the news article that inspired this strip is when the restaurant was closed down by the health inspector, the sign on the door read: Closed because of family problems.
